Statuario Extra Marble brings character to any space. It is a natural metamorphic stone valued for its classic elegance and soft, luminous surface. Its palette features light gray tones with noticeable natural movement.
Look and Character
Every slab of Statuario Extra is unique, with natural variations in color and pattern, so we recommend viewing full slabs before choosing your material.
Best Uses
Statuario Extra Marble is well suited to bathroom vanities, shower walls, fireplace surrounds, backsplashes and elegant kitchen countertops. It pairs beautifully with white, gray, navy or natural wood cabinetry.
Care and Maintenance
Marble is softer and more porous than granite, and acidic liquids such as lemon juice, wine or vinegar can etch the surface. Seal it regularly, wipe spills right away and clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner.

Statuario Extra FAQ
Is Statuario Extra Marble good for kitchen countertops?
It works well in kitchens if you are comfortable with some etching and patina over time; many homeowners choose it for vanities, islands and baking areas.
Does Marble need to be sealed?
Yes. Marble should be sealed more often, usually every 6 to 12 months. Sealing helps with stains but does not prevent etching from acidic foods.
How does Statuario Extra Marble compare with quartzite?
Marble offers the classic look but is softer and etches with acids; quartzite gives a similar look with much higher durability.
Can I see the actual Statuario Extra slab, and do you serve Johns Island and Summerville?
Yes. Natural and engineered surfaces vary by lot, so we help you see the actual slab before fabrication. Stonphase serves Charleston, SC and nearby areas including Johns Island, Summerville and James Island.
